Welcome Saeid.... Nice to have you. These guys know their stuff here and I'm sure you an learn a thing or two.

Freak.... I need to check Cariri....since I'm already on Campus. That'll really help me decide. A partner with the new Sportero confirmed that Diamond motors doing 10 000km oil change on their common rail engines. Of course they running full synthetic.

We'll have to pull in the newbies when the lime taking place ....

BTW, are non diesel vehicles allowed for any lime that may take place? For example, the 2.7vvti Gasoline Hilux... or the nissan xtrail... these are gas powered.

Is regular power washing a good or bad thing?

This gas station attendant told me I shouldnt power wash the fenders, It will beat out the ziebart....

I said, ok.

I try to maintain a strict once a month power washing regime.

NEVER power wash the body of your vehicle. It can damage the paint. With respect to the fenders, I agree with the attendant...If too much pressure is used, it can removed the Ziebart coating. In this case I'd recommend using a normal hose attached to a tap supplied by a pump.

I used a 1750PSI pressure washer, on the wide setting, on my car once to flush away some mud on the tires and it removed the paint on the rims.
